I bought my first camera when I was 12 years old, (the somewhat clunky, built like a tank, Zenith EM). A couple of years later, at 17, I got my big break when the local newspaper published my picture of Princess Anne (half page on the front page no-less!) when she was visiting the area.
This kind of inspired me and I took a job working for a highly respected local wedding photographer - the closest thing to a photography apprenticeship that you could get at the time.It was here that I learned the traditional ways of photography; shooting on rolls of film, wet processing, printing - and carrying the camera case for the boss.

My Style
Report
I picked up my first camera in 1984. The 80's were a great era for weddings. The fashion at the time was for puffball sleeves, big hair & flowers everywhere - looking back it's easy to smile at those pictures, but they were cutting edge at the time. Today, they cannot help but look a little dated. As they say fashion fades, style is eternal (yes I'm talking to you, Mr Man Bun).
How much does Wedding Photography cost ? Wedding Photography...
Report
The variation on Wedding Photography Prices is astonishing (even to me!). Every photographer has a different level of experience and skill and charges accordingly. Unfortunately, there is no 'minimum standard' in wedding photography and no legal requirements across the field.
However, many of us take it upon ourselves to undertake training, have our work judged by our peers, invest in the best equipment, accredit ourselves with a professional body and make sure that we fully insure both for public and personal liability (very important if your wedding is taking place in a National Trust site).This is my full-time profession and has been for over 20 years.

Choosing the best wedding photographer for you is possibly one of the most difficult tasks couples face. There are so many photographers out there with varying degrees of quality and price. I have always believed that the best form of advertising, is a personal recommendation. Massive thank you to Stuart and Gillian for our wedding photographs, it has made our special day even more memorable!
